Naan Avan Illai seems to have done quite a bit of good for tall dusky Jeevan. His performance as the ruthless villain Pandya in Gautam Menon's Kaaka Kaaka won applause. It was a while before he graced the screen again, and he's been playing the bad boy since. But he says he's turned over a new leaf onscreen, and his roles in the future will show him in better light! Soon to release is Machakaaran and under production is Payanigal Gavanathirku. Joining this list is Thotta - where he's back to his bad ways again!

When a criminal and a blooming lady sub-inspector fall in love, what can you expect? That's Thotta in one line! Jeevan plays the tough guy. If you pay him, he'll pulverize whoever you point your finger at. The fearless hardened thug, a terror in his circle of lowlife acquaintances, falls in love in spite of himself.

Priyamani is his lady love. Coming from an ordinary middle-class family, growing up with ambitions of joining the police force, the young and vibrant girl fulfils this dream, then falls in love with the dark, mysterious Jeevan. She has no clue that he belongs to the clan she wants to put behind bars!

Love blossoms between the two; one fine day Priya confides her dream to him. She then asks him to stand by her and help her make her dream a reality. Jeevan is taken aback by this revelation, but does not let his surprise show. Instead of trying to steer her away, he promises to help her. What happens next? Does he help her or hinder her? Wait and watch!
